At the Great Foundry Technology Conference in Salzburg on 25 and 26 April, everything will revolve around casting. It's all about the future of production technology and the industry. And its further development in times of transformation and a shortage of young talent. Registration is now open online.
In 2018, over 800 participants met at the Kongresshaus in Salzburg for the Great Foundry Technology Conference. A lot has happened since then. The transformation towards a climate-neutral future is gathering pace and poses major challenges not only for the foundry industry. In addition, corona, the Ukraine war, raw material and energy crises - dialogue is more necessary than ever to find solutions and concepts for the future of the industry. The Federal Association of the German Foundry Industry, together with Austrian, Swiss and German foundry associations, has put together a programme of presentations that reflects the megatrends in casting technology and the foundry industry.
As usual, participants can expect presentations covering foundry technology practice and research in the fields of iron, steel and non-ferrous metal casting as well as production technology, material and process development. In addition, solutions for energy efficiency, environmental technology, digitalisation and the recruitment of skilled workers will be presented, the application of which could be promising in foundries or which have already been successfully implemented.
In Salzburg, the industry will discuss megatrends, find solutions and prepare itself for the future. Registration for the Great Foundry Technology Conference in April is now open online - link to registration
